IFROh TIE LINCOLN BCREAU.l
New Years day at tho capital city was
cold, quiet and uneventful, with business
practically left to its own individual care,
and every one high and low, bent upon such
enjoyment as the frosty weather out of doors
would permit. Considering tho fact that the
opening days of the legislature are at Me
door the corridors Of the leading hotels pre-
sented q rather quiet appearance, and it was
evident that majority Of the members pre-
ferred remaining NJ home to commence tho
now year rather than to make pledges and
promises to the grlst of hungry oifice-seekers,
who, from DR.. Blair, the relic, down the long
line, become crowd of hangers-0n that
ought to disgust every member who strikes
the city. A stranger would think, to see
some of these patriots making themselves
promiscuous around, that they were the only
ones who knew much in this world, espe
ciaily about politics, and the new arrival is
introduced around to the elegant bummerS
until he wonders that some of the candidates
are not unanimously elected to the United
States senate instead of, after long struggles,
getting positions little better than those of
pages.
IN POLITICS.
Among the arrivals to-day the smiling face
of Paul Schminke. Otoe's senator, was seen.
Senator Lindsay, of Beaver City, represent
ing eight counties of the Republican valley,
arrived yesterday Ex-senator Paddock ar
rived to-day and will commence to figure
with the boys jim Laird is expected to-
morrow.
WANTS A CORRECTION.
Major \. q. Franklin, who is Just success
fully closing n term of work in the sccretary's
Office asks the BEE to correct the wholly er-
roneous statement published in yesterdays
Omaha Republican in connection with
number of other mlSstatements regarding
Governor 'rhayer. Tho major states that he
IhayeI, ms stated regarding the private secre-
taryship; that the subject has never been
mentioned between them; that General
Thayer was not IN the city at all when such
reported consultation was cited, and the major
docs not want such erroneous statements
20 go uncontradictcd. The same report in
the Republican rectcd that Governor Thayer
was registered at one OF the leading hotels in
tho city, when he was not in the city at all,
and it located his winter residence on Tenth
street. whereas the governor has his rooms
street. The general inaccuracies of all that
was said concerning the governor Is nearly
denial enough without the necessity of Major
Iranklin making direct one.

ings is that Charles Carter, present chief

20 be an exchange of titles more than any
thing else, for the routine work in the two

hard TO locate just where to present the con-
gratulatiOns,
